Technological requirements

We usually recommend desktop PCs with dual monitors for the best experience. Higher end laptops can be used as well but consider purchasing a second monitor that can be connected to the laptop. Dual monitors are preferred due to the number of applications you’ll be working with. Single monitors will work as well, it’s just less efficient to work with.
